Blurred Lines
Your choices manifested blurred lines between control and abuse
How long until your actions engulf your soul?
Diminishing dreams you embarked on in hope of tranquility
Avoiding temporary pain you clung to a fleeting relief

Now the person you lay eyes upon is a reflection of a lost soul
A stranger whom your youth would never respect
You’d say “How could a person end up like that?”
Then walked in their shoes
No longer amongst the stars
You descend to the bottom of the sea
When did you forget to swim?
It seems these days you’d rather sink
Whether into an open bottle or pussy
You’d rather sink
Running from the man you were afraid to be
You ended at the finish line
Of blurred lines between control and abuse.
